A percussion instrument of
african
descent and then culturized by the
latin
peoples.
It is a
gourd
filled with seeds or beads, and then shaken rhythmically.
Davy Jones
could be seen playing up to four at a time when he was singing with
The Monkees
back in the day.
There are several different techniques used for playing maraca. A
percussionist
may
manipulate
the beads inside the gourd by shaking it back, forth, up and down
simultaneously
. Also, a "
stir
" may be acheived by holding the maraca gourd-side down and slowly rotating it in a circular
manner
. This creates a sound not unlike
ocean
waves or
wind
.
